linux subsonic + musiccabinet

[TrezOne]

When you're saying no sign of MusicCabinet anywhere... care to elaborate?

Certainly. The installation guide for MusicCabinet states:

Start and log in to Subsonic as usual (normally via localhost:4040) and click the big "Configure MusicCabinet" header link. It should be pretty self-explanatory from there.

But after following the process and logging in, no big header link was visible.

Here's a snapshot of Subsonic after I log in.



I've tried Chromium and Firefox but do not see a header.

Might I have missed something?

I did a bit more research and started from square one. I suspected that I might have an incomplete/incorrect installation of Postgresql.

The MusicCabinet installation guide directs users to http://www.postgresql.org/download which has an Ubuntu installation page - http://www.postgresql.org/download/linux/ubuntu/. The page instructs the user to enter:

Code: Select all

apt-get install postgresql-9.4

Doing so returns the following error:

Code: Select all

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package postgresql-9.4
E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'postgresql-9.4'


Still, a note on the page indicates that "PostgreSQL is available in all Ubuntu versions by default."

The MusicCabinet installation page also states that some Linux users may need to enter:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install postgresql-contrib

Doing so returns the following:

Code: Select all

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
postgresql-contrib is already the newest version.
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  comerr-dev krb5-multidev libgssrpc4 libkadm5clnt-mit9 libkadm5srv-mit9
  libkdb5-7 libpq-dev libssl-dev libssl-doc zlib1g-dev
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 22 not upgraded.

Based on the info above, it appears Postgresql is succesfully installed.

guisar's instructions (posted to this thread Tue Jan 15, 2013 2:15 pm) direct the user to set up their Postgresql pwd next.

Entering sudo -u postgres psql template1 successfully takes me through each of the subsequent steps to set up a password.

I made sure to replace the two specified files as instructed, then restarted Subsonic and logged in.

Still no MusicCabinet menu and the Subsonic log is as per usual.

I welcome your input.
